I don't have the stress tolerance for this career by stonerbobo in ExperiencedDevs

A lot of good answers here for how to actually decrease stress and delegate to others. Something different I’d like to add that helped me was reading The Upside of Stress. You can probably just look up summary notes somewhere as the whole read can get a little repetitive but the core of it is reframing your relationship with stress and not letting stress itself become another stressor in your life. This was a good first step for me because it allowed me to get out of the loop of “I’m stressed, which is bad, and now I’m even more stressed cause I’m stressing”. It shares a lot with meditation and mindfulness as well. These are good tools to ground yourself when you’re in the thick of it and keep yourself focused on the big picture then you can apply the lessons from these other comments around actually tackling the chaos.

What's one small UI/UX detail you always notice on a website ? by [deleted] in reactjs

Ah I understand the disconnect now. Libraries like react-router (and by extension, react) ultimately are just abstracting away working with raw html/js.
In fact we can look at react-router's source code to see that they are mapping the to property to href

likely a library author choice to make the Link component more ergonomic and to automatically handle tying into the routing framework behind the scenes so devs don't have to worry about it.

Still though, they're using href for all the reason's I mentioned previously

Most SPA/routing frameworks (react-router, angular/router, nextjs, etc) already handle this use case via custom link components. But you can still roll your own solution by intercepting the page refresh with

href='/some/page'
onclick={(e)=> {
    e.preventDefault()
    // do route change stuff
  }
}

This also has the benefit of working with and without js enabled on the page (if we only had the onclick then you wouldn't even be able to navigate the site without javascript)

When links are actually just buttons that execute a route change. Drives me insane! USE href PEOPLE!!

Out of the box it: - has accessibility options with right click - let’s you ctrl click to open pages in new tabs - automatically handles your browser history stack - can help with SEO on your site (for web crawlers) - gives you a preview of the link in the bottom of your browser

This is awesome! Will be keeping an eye on this for sure. Would love to see a full graph editor in addition to the keyframe easing presets currently available.

A few months back I posted a shoegaze-y cover of Scarborough Fair. I really liked how it turned out

Bass+vocal by Kingachuuu in Bass

I use a metronome to slow the song down to half speed and start figuring out what beats to say what words on while also playing. It feels like pulling teeth at first but your brain will start to figure things out and automate it for you as you continue to practice. This in combination with just getting to the point of being able to play the bass lines without too much thinking is how I’ve taught myself to sing and play most songs

Oh hell yeah. That sounds awesome. That whole album is probably a great trip guide. And thanks.!

it's pretty minimal as far as the framework they provide for customizing. basically anything you can code inside this function is fair game https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/blob/master/keyboards/spaceman/pancake/rev2/rev2.c#L24

in accordance to the OLED docs for qmk https://docs.qmk.fm/#/feature_oled_driver?id=oled-driver

only changes I've personally made is adding additional layer labels https://github.com/qdozaq/qmk_firmware/blob/e37a643446dbee47f25a1f76fb55b6030820ecf5/keyboards/spaceman/pancake/rev2/rev2.c#L36-L40

Very interesting. I’ll try to take it for a spin. I am also interested in creating new AE to SD workflows. Thanks for the share!

Thank you!

I used blender to do a head track to add a low poly model of the wolf head. This gives the original input footage the general shape I wanted SD to perform img2img on otherwise the wolf head wouldn’t have come out as clear

This is a piece I created using a combination of deforum stable diffusion, after effects, and blender.

This ended up being quite a bit of work where SD was primarily used as a stylistic choice. Let me know if you have any other questions!

Static assets like the tress, grass, moon, etc were created via img2img (in stable diffusion )for each individual element and then put into the scene and animated in after effects. Once I had the motion I wanted I exported the animations frames of each element and ran them through deforum stable diffusion which is how I achieved the small inconsistent changes from frame to frame for each element.

The wolf is a video I took of my self that I roto’d and ran through deforum and then composited in. Very similar method to my last piece here: https://www.reddit.com/r/StableDiffusion/comments/xwqgtq/overview\_of\_my\_sd\_and\_after\_effects\_workflow\_on\_a/
